Solution Overview
STAR-CAT5 is a flow and thermal simulation software from CD-adapco that is embedded in the CATIA v5 PLM-environment system to provide design engineers with quick feedback on product design performance during the definition and development phase. It also allows to drive STAR-CCM+ advanced CFD solution. Strengthening the deployment of a enterprise-wide CFD solution, meeting needs of both design and validation groups while sharing analysis information.
Benefits
- Designers, engineers, and analysts are not required to learn a specialist simulation tool
- Associativity with parametric CAD models allows easy modification of parts without the need to redefine units, materials or boundary conditions, saving time and improving productivity.
- The simulation is directly associated with the geometry, enabling interactive as well as automated parametric what-if design evaluations for optimization.
- A unique and proven technology, the polyhedral cells, brings speed, solution stability, and more accuracy for CFD simulations than tetrahedral elements.
